for chuck hagel even always a member of the republican party is primarily known in washington for being a lone wolf for being very much his own man in terms of his view of national security issues and i can tell you that i remember very vividly in two thousand and four two thousand and five when you couldn't find a liberal democrat in washington who would speak out against the iraq war i would visit his office and speak with his las legislative assistant for foreign affairs rex on you and i found that. it was the office of chuck hagel was very much in line with those of us who understood that this was a disaster in the making and therefore i think he stands out in a sea of political faces in washington who have drunk the kool-aid on america's wars as someone who very very early on was had the integrity and the intellectual honesty to tell the truth so in light of a lot of obama's continued foreign policy then is not a bit of an odd choice would you think that obama is actually nominating him. well i don't think it is an odd choice in light of the realities that president obama faces he
